Hello from the Mojave in SoCal

[warriorjcm]

Just bought a piece of property with a big coop on it. I raised chickens as a kid, and am excited to get back into it. Rhodies are in high demand out here, so Im thinking about breeding to sell chicks. I inherited 3 Rhodie hens and a Leghorn hen. problem is i cant find a Rhodie rooster. everyone Ive asked around here tells me they're also looking for one. I've already learned a lot from this page and look forward to being part of the community!

Once you have 20 posts, you can use the buy-sell-trade forum, roosters are usually plentiful (although you may have to wait a bit for the breed you want).

Good luck!

Welcome!

I wish you good luck in your quest.

I hope you enjoy BYC. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun. Unlike non chicken loving friends, family and colleagues, BYC’ers never tire of stories or pictures that feature our feathered and non feathered friends

How exciting you found property with a coop already on it. Can't wait to see photos.

If everyone else around you is looking for a RIR rooster and you all get one, competition to sell chicks is going to be fierce.
